While the pandemic has challenged us all, it has also launched new opportunities and has changed the way we do business. It has given me the experience of working very successfully in a remote capacity and has opened a wider range of opportunities. I am seeking a mid level Benefits management/analyst role and am open to opportunities that are either finite or permanent. My value-add lies in my reputation for tenacity and my commitment to those I serve and those I serve with. Additionally, during my 10 years of experience at AT&T, I tackled everyday concerns and complex challenges (e.g. new health plan designs such as high deductible plans, compliance, legislative). I managed projects cross functionally and with wonderful vendor partners, and I helped leaders to see the value of our work through metrics. I have experience managing health, disability, life, retirement and executive benefit plans. I enjoy all aspects of Benefits strategy and administration because this field is ever changing and because all that we do, as Benefits Professionals, is helping employees and their families manage their health and financial well being. That is a great purpose to have!
